This section describes the management of connection factories. Connection factories can belong to several categories:
*Generic connection factories that allow their type (topic or queue) to be determined at application run time vs. connection factories whose type is predetermined.
*Connection factories for standalone JMS messaging applications vs. JMS applications running under application servers (XA connection factories). Only XA connection factories contain built-in support for transactions.
The steps in this section assume that you have already specified the JNDI provider and Broker with which to associate a connection factory and its configuration settings. If you have not done so, see Managing JNDI Naming Directories.
Note:
When naming JMS objects and subcontexts in an LDAP environment, you must include a prefix, such as cn= (common name), or ou= (organizational unit). My webMethods simplifies the use of LDAP service providers by allowing you to refer to object and context names without a prefix. If you do not supply a prefix, My webMethods automatically adds a default prefix.
Important:
Before you create or modify a connection factory or destination, make sure the Broker that will store the JMS provider's configuration settings is started. The Broker does not have to be started to view or remove a JMS administered object once that object is created.
